as accessibility matters usually are, this is a thing that EXCLUDES disabled people. writing ALT is not a fun extra exercise but a necessary thing that should be automatically added.
it is extremely discouraging to see especially political left wing memes and posts with cool images and well made points, just to see that they don’t have ALT descriptions in place.
you cant keep leaving disabled people outside, accessibility fucking matters. #UseALTText #UseALTTextPlease

How am I seeing so much twitteresque clap trap in my timeline? It isn't from people I follow but still, it's filled with political rants without CWs and partially written paragraphs that have little meaning on their own. 90% of the photos I see have no alt text and most that do might as well not bother, 'trees with sunlight' or 'Street in no one knows where' really doesn't help the visually impaired.

Seeing some good photos on here, which deserve sharing but won't be because people aren't adding alt-text!
Also try using hashtags to make your posts searchable!

@alun I wish I'd made a note of where I saw it first so I could properly attribute it!
More on alt text coming in the next week or two, we'd like to see more attention to this.

I joined as the #TwitterMigration just started. My instance was just a few hundred people as I learned the ethos here (e.g. #UseCamelCase, #UseAltText, #BoostNotFavaorite, #UnlistedPostsForThreads, #UseContentWarnings---still working on that last one).
At first I impatiently waited for more people to move over so I could replicate my previous way of internet-ing over here, but meanwhile I got a glimmer of the #BeforeMigrationTimes and understand what people had built how they interacted.
